Frequently Asked Questions
What should we wear?
Something that you feel both comfortable and fantastic in! Whatever makes you feel like a great version of yourself. I don’t think that families need to be all matching or super dressed up. Consider having everyone in outfits that are the same level of formality and tone of colors. I will also suggest avoiding solid white shirts (draws one’s attention) and if a little one is wearing a skirt, make sure there are bloomers or bike shorts underneath. If you’ve selected the full session, you’re also welcome to try some outfit changes.What should we have ready for the shoot?
If we’re shooting a baby who’s not yet walking, please consider having a pretty blanket that they can lay or sit on. If they need help sitting up, having a boppy or comfy pillow to support them is also helpful. Also consider whether there are any family heirlooms or gifts that you’d like them to be photographed with.How can we prepare the kiddos for this?
Let them know ahead of time that I’m coming and that it’s going to be fun! Ask them if there’s anything they want to wear or be photographed with. Remind them that this is a special thing for your family to do together and that any photos we get will be great!Do you do shorter or less expensive shoots?
I totally understand that having your family photographed is a luxury! After a decade of shooting families, the options that I offer are the best way that I’ve found to capture families and make sure that I get a variety of images for you. I sometimes offer shorter shoots in one location around the holidays – feel free to reach out if you’d like to know about them!
